Mike Gordon and his band wrapped a two-week tour last June at Union Transfer in Philadelphia. The show has been cherry picked for a brand new, free live release to celebrate the start of Mike's upcoming tour which begins January 22 in Austin, TX.

The show has been mixed & mastered from the band's multi-tracks and is available for download free and streaming via the LivePhish App at http://livephi.sh/mg062815

Mike returns to the road in January, this time hitting the western half of the U.S. with his band on the heels of a well-received June run. The tour will begin with the band's debut shows in Texas beginning in Austin on January 22 before carving its way west with stops in Flagstaff, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Denver and others.

It dawned on me half a year before I boarded a plane to Chicago for the final three Dead shows. The King Sooper’s (Western Union) teller laughed when I told him why I needed seven money orders to purchase, potentially, just three tickets. “So there are different price points for various seating levels.

With another summer tour looming the “Phab Phour” from Vermont have whet the appetites of their fan base by unleashing another monstrous concert box-set.  The band continues their string of excellent archival releases with the newest addition to their ever-expanding live catalogue; an 8-disc collection presenting three incendiary shows performed at the Paradiso in the Netherlands during their heralded 1997 European tours, which for all intents and purposes will be called Amsterdam ’97.

Mike returns to the road with his band this Friday, beginning in Charleston, SC. Mike will be bringing along Scott Murawski (guitar), Craig Myers (percussion), Robert Walter (keyboards) and John Kimock (drums).

Phish tour is just around the corner and that means it’s time once again for the Mimi Fishman Foundation to host an auction for the WaterWheel Foundation.

The auction features ticket packages for each show on the summer tour as well as wonderful travel packages for Alpine Valley, Atlanta, Dicks Sporting Goods Park, and Magnaball.  

Bids are currently being accepted with the auction coming to a close June 4.

While the “Fare Thee Well” Forth of July at Solider Field announcement from the surviving members of The Dead have fans nationwide in pandemonium, California’s Bay Area has already begun celebrating fifty years of Grateful Dead with a number of intimate events. Guitarist Bob Weir has returned to performance with some stellar extended-for-network-TV jamming with host John Mayer on The Late Late Show.

It’s been two weeks since the surviving members of Grateful Dead announced that they would be performing a final farewell three-day concert event over Fourth of July weekend at Chicago’s Solider Field. The most important psychedelic rock band in history turned fifty years old this year. Another equally significant anniversary for 2015 is twenty years ago this July were the final performances of the Grateful Dead with lead guitarist and bandleader Jerry Garcia.
